Code Geass Anime Opening & Ending Theme Songs With Lyrics

Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion (both R1 and R2 a.k.a. season 1 and season 2 respectively) is among the best animes that I have seen so far, and it has a few quite catchy opening and closing themes as well. I have compiled all of them here (admittedly partly for my own benefit and enjoyment) with lyrics so you can sing along with me. You know, most of these songs have a karaoke version… 🙂

Code Geass R1 Opening Theme 1

Jibun o Sekai sae mo Kaete shimaesou na
Shunkan wa Itsumo sugu soba ni…

Kakusenu iradachi to
Tachitsukusu jibun o Mitsume

Mayoinagara Nayaminagara Kuyaminagara Kimereba ii sa
Kimi ga kureta kotoba hitotsu Tomadoi wa kiesari
Karappo datta Boku no heya ni Hikari ga sashita

Miageta oozora ga Aoku sumikitte yuku
Tozashita Mado o Hiraku koto o kimeta
Jibun o Sekai sae mo Kaete shimaesou na

Shunkan o Kanjiru ima koko ni…

Note:

Code Geass R1 Opening Theme 2

Yumemiteta, yume
Hate naki tooku
Kawaita hibi no sorairo the no naka

Toukankaku oto no naka de shikousakugo
Jikan kankaku no nai kuukan
Toushindai oto wo tatete
Boku no kao, tsukutte yuku
Kirei ni, katahou dake

Kono the ni ochita
Kusari kake no ringo
Kagami ni utsuru, bokura no uragawa made

Toukankaku oto no naka de shikousakugo

Boku no kao, kezutte yuku
Kirei ni, katahou dake

– Tookankaku
– Toushindai
